EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT
- 3D Seismic Survey South Texas
Participant in an approximate 60 square mile 3D survey in South Texas
to evaluate Wilcox and shallower sands. The first 3 prospects have
been identified and leasing is finalized. One well has been drilled
and completed as a gas producer. Three other wells have been permitted.
- Jurassic Prospect East Texas
Generated a prospect covering approximately 10,000 acres based on subsurface
control, seismic, offset production and a pre-fracture stimulation
test in the key well. Apache Corporation acquired the property in
2002 and drilled and completed a well with 65 feet of pay in the
Cotton Valley Lime. Apache has drilled 6 8 wells in the area to date,
5 of which are successful completions in the Cotton Valley Lime,
with potential pay behind pipe in the Cotton Valley and Bossier sands.
XTO has also drilled 2 successful Cotton Valley Lime wells. A horizontal
Cotton Valley Sand test is expected to be drilled southwest of the
area by another Operator by the end of 2009.
- Stockman Field Area - Shelby County, Texas
Calvin was instrumental in negotiating an approximate 7,000 acre farm-out
from a major independent oil & gas company. Calvin and its’ partners
have re-entered 1 well and drilled 9 additional wells on this prospect.
To date, potential pay zones have been found in the Pettet, Travis
Peak, Upper and Lower Cotton Valley sands, Haynesville Shale and
Haynesville Lime. Large independents have acquired leases in the
immediate area and to the east of the acreage block for the “Haynesville” Shale
play. Devon energy has permitted 2 Haynesville Shale tests immediately
west of our HBP acreage.
- Upper Texas Coalbed Methane Project
Calvin and its partner negotiated an exploration area agreement that
covered over 3,500 square miles and built a database that incorporated
geologic, geophysical, land and engineering data on several thousand
wells. The database was used to develop multiple computerized maps
and cross-sections that led to the drilling of a successful coalbed
methane test in late 2000.
- Cedar Springs Prospect - Upshur County, Texas
Generated 6,000 acre prospect which was based on the relation between
pre-fracture stimulation flow test of Cotton Valley "Taylor" Sand
interval in key well and proven producing interval in Cedar Springs
Field. Sold prospect to Bannon Energy Corporation. Bannon utilized
information in sale of 87.5% working interest in this prospect and
Wright Mountain Prospect to Lomak Petroleum Inc. Bannon had capital
expenditures of less than $2 MM for these two prospects and realized
net gain of almost $8 MM from sale, including retention of a 12.5%
working interest.
